Mobile Opportunistic Network (MON) is characterized by intermittent connectivity where
communication largely depends on the mobility pattern of the participating nodes. In MON, a …

In the past few years, more and more researchers have paid close attention to the emerging
field of delay tolerant networks (DTNs), in which network often partitions and end-to-end …

The past few years have seen intensive research efforts carried out in some apparently
unrelated areas of dynamic systems–delay-tolerant networks, opportunistic-mobility …

Mobile devices are increasingly being relied on for services that go beyond simple
connectivity and require more complex processing. Fortunately, a mobile device encounters …

Simulating human mobility is important in mobile networks because many mobile devices
are either attached to or controlled by humans and it is very hard to deploy real mobile …

Models of human mobility have broad applicability in fields such as mobile computing, urban
planning, and ecology. This paper proposes and evaluates WHERE, a novel approach to …

Task allocation is a fundamental research issue in mobile crowd sensing. While earlier
research focused mainly on single tasks, recent studies have started to investigate multi-task …

Device-to-device (D2D) communication is seen as a major technology to overcome the
imminent wireless capacity crunch and to enable new application services. In this paper, a …

Mobile crowdsensing is a new paradigm in which a crowd of mobile users exploit their
carried smart phones to conduct complex sensing tasks. In this paper, we focus on the …

Mobile wireless networks frequently possess, at the same time, both dense and sparse
regions of connectivity; for example, due to a heterogeneous node distribution or radio …
